Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 1423 Game
"finally reached."

Looking at the city in the distance, everyone was very emotional. They were exhausted from traveling for many days and nights, just to reach this place before the deadline.

It's a pity that they had worked so hard to get to Pingcheng, but they couldn't get in.

"Let's find a place to camp," Ying Baoyue looked at the surrounding terrain, "Jiashu and the rebels are still behind, I will stay here as a guidepost for them."

Ji Qingyuan rushed to her side and nodded calmly.

The team grew a lot along the way, and Ji Jiashu even led a rebel team of more than 500 people alone. Because the rebels could only walk, Ji Jiashu led them to march behind, and Ying Baoyue and others were just here to explore the way.

Glancing at the city wall of Pingcheng, Ji Qingyuan turned around and began to look for a suitable place to camp around the city.

It is impossible for their team of so many people to enter the city, and they must only be stationed outside the city.

Along the way, everyone was already familiar with the procedures of camping out at night. Even the rebels who joined later, Ying Baoyue had taught them how to set up tents and how to set up tents in fixed positions according to the order of the teams they were assigned to.

"Baoyue, why don't you go over there?" Ji Qingyuan chose a camping spot, and ran far away to Ying Baoyue who was still standing there.

"That's it." Ying Baoyue's eyes stopped on a seemingly barren mountain in the distance, "By the way, I'm going to the city tonight, and I'm going to meet a guest."

"Guest?" Ji Qingyuan wondered, "Who?"

"It's been hard work for her to follow us all the way," Ying Baoyue smiled, "It's time for me to see her too."

Ji Qingyuan opened his eyes slightly, was someone following them?

But seeing Ying Baoyue's expression, the other party should have no malicious intentions, so he felt relieved, "Okay, then let's go."

……

……

At night, Ji Jiashu arrived with the rebels, and the clearing in the forest that Ji Qingyuan had chosen suddenly became lively.

The mountain people who were still in a mess a few days ago now had neat green cloth tied around their arms, and in groups of ten, they set up tents either clumsily or skillfully under the command of their own seniors.

Originally, they were used to talking loudly to each other, but when they saw the largest tent in the center of the camp, they all lowered their voices, with a little awe in their eyes, and lowered their heads to do what they were doing.

"Thanks to Shanhaiju, we were able to get so many tents," everyone in the Martial Arts Camp was also camping, and Mu Rongqing looked at the tents in the open space, and said to Ba Niang with emotion.

"That's a lot," Fang Ba Niang laughed. She didn't tell Mu Rongqing that Shanhaiju's reserves for so many years were enough to support an army of ten thousand people.

The supplies for hundreds of people are just a drop in the bucket for them.

"Really?" Mu Rongqing was a little surprised, looking at those tents and lively people, she took a deep breath.

When she followed Ying Baoyue and left the Mu family, she never expected that they would be in such a grand mood when they arrived in the Northern Wei Dynasty.

This is still a time when the world is not in chaos. If the world really is in chaos, how many people can this teenage girl gather?
"Four days left."

Fang Ba Niang said, "I don't know if we can find Ning Guta in advance."

Mu Rongqing's eyes also became serious, "When will the Northern Wei King's imperial chariot arrive?"

"I heard from Thirteen that they will arrive tomorrow, and we are just ahead of them."

Fang Baniang sighed, "We will definitely know where Ninggu Pagoda is at the enthronement ceremony, but by then it will be too late."

If you want to save Meng Shi, you must hurry up before the Northern Wei King ascends the throne.

There was a deeper layer of worry in Mu Rongqing's heart.

"If so many people came to rescue Meng Jizi, if Ning Guta found out, would they kill Meng Jizi in advance?"

After all, even though Yelulang ascended the throne to kill Meng Shi in public, hanging the dead body is enough to shock the world.

If the Northern Wei Dynasty saw that the situation was wrong and attacked Meng Shi first, then it would be too late.

Mu Rongqing couldn't imagine how hard Ying Baoyue would be hit.

Hearing her words, Fang Baniang was also terrified, "Have you talked to Her Royal Highness about this?"

"Of course I did." Mu Rongqing nodded, "It's better to say that she already knew."

With Ying Baoyue's meticulous mind, it is impossible not to think of this level.

"What is Her Royal Highness planning to do?" Fang Baniang looked at the largest tent in the middle of the open space. All of them had already arrived in Pingcheng, but no one knew Ying Baoyue's next plan.

Shanhaiju has been investigating the guards around Ninggu Tower these days. Just looking at the information from those who have been there before is enough to make people despair, not to mention that no one knows the exact location of Ninggu Tower.

"Are you sure Ninggu Pagoda is near here?" Mu Rongqing asked.

Fang Baniang nodded, "These days I heard that people from Nanchu and some people brought by the former Qin stepson have arrived in Pingcheng one after another, and have been waiting and watching in the city."

These people are all going to participate in the high-level ceremony, and the bricks of Ninggu Tower are necessary for them.

It seems that Ying Baoyue guessed the final location of Ning Gu Pagoda pretty well.

"Former Qin stepson?" Mu Rongqing's brows moved slightly, "Is that your Highness's cousin?"

Fang Baniang nodded.

After Ying Xun left Soochow, he was strictly guarded by the elders of the former Qin Dynasty. He was not allowed to contact Ying Baoyue, and everyone lost his news for a long time. Unexpectedly, he brought the former Qin people to Pingcheng.

"It turned out to be him," Mu Rongqing raised her eyebrows. At the beginning, many people went to Mu's house under the banner of Ying Xun to persuade her father to come out of the mountain. She didn't expect that she would meet the real master here.

"What is this Mr. Xun doing in Pingcheng these days?" She asked lightly.

Fang Baniang shook her head, "According to Shanhaiju's information, the former step-son of the Qin Dynasty and the second prince of Nanchu stayed in the borrowed mansion and did not go out."

"Really?" Mu Rongqing looked at the big tent in the center, so the two groups of people in the city were completely watching.

Leaving aside the Second Highness of Southern Chu, Jiang Yuanyuan, I heard that he was on the same road with Ying Baoyue and others for a while at first. Just took them away.

As for Ying Xun...

Being able to come to Pingcheng to stay so early must be because he was well protected along the way, and Mingzhe came here safely.

Mu Rongqing looked at the bustling "Princess Army" in the open space, and remembered Ying Baoyue's behavior of helping the villagers one after another no matter how hurried he was along the way. She suddenly understood why her father didn't choose Ying Xun.

"This Mr. Xun's behavior style is different from his sister's."

Fang Ba Niang nodded, and Mu Rongqing frowned suddenly.

"By the way, where is the princess?"

……

……

As Mu Rongqing expected, Ying Baoyue was not in the tent at this time.

Standing on the streets of Pingcheng, she slightly lifted the cloak on her head and looked at the plaque in front of the house.

There are two large characters written on the plaque.

"Huo Mansion."
